No revving
Hi im having a problem with my 94 import. She has been off the road for some time and today fitted new timing belt kit, waterpump etc. When turning her over she started first time and idle a little high 1200rpm. When warm i pushed the accelorator peddle down and the peddle sunk to the floor and she coughed and spluttered but didn rev, just like there was a hole in the footwell and the peddle just kept dropping with nothing to show for it? This has puzled me, could it be spark plugs which i changed about 12 months ago (havent been used at all) could it be idle control valve, o2 sensor? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Regards Gareth

Re: No revving
Hi car has been off the road for 16 months, however was turning over and starting perfectly. Idling a little high but made adjustments to control valve last year and idled perfect. I'm doing a complete overhaul, and in the process of fitting fmic, I think what might of happened is I haven't fastened the aftermarket air filter back on correctly? If there's too much air getting in could this have this effect? If not where abouts is the bit ur talking about on the throttle body? Cheers Gareth
